Image
I was a quiet teenager, introverted, full of angst.
Nigella Lawson
Image
In fact I am quite snappy and irritable, and I don't know if I'd like to make myself worse in that respect.
Nigella Lawson
Image
I am not sure about facelifts because I wouldn't want to be someone who just looks like she's had a facelift.
Nigella Lawson
Image
I wasn't good with authority, went to lots of schools, didn't like the fact that there was no autonomy.
Nigella Lawson
Image
But if you know that something has been really vicious, you don't read it, you don't let it into your head. What's damaging is when sentences go through your head and you burn with the injustice of it.

I think we all live in a world that is so fast-paced, it's threatening and absolutely saturated with change and novelty and insecurity. Therefore, the ritual of cooking and feeding my family and friends, whoever drops in, is what makes me feel that I'm in a universe that is contained.
Nigella Lawson

Cooking is actually quite aggressive and controlling and sometimes, yes, there is an element of force-feeding going on.
Nigella Lawson
Image
At some stages of your life you will deal with things and at others you are overwhelmed with misery and anxiety.
Nigella Lawson
Image
But I do think that women who spend all their lives on a diet probably have a miserable sex life: if your body is the enemy, how can you relax and take pleasure? Everything is about control, rather than relaxing, about holding everything in.
Nigella Lawson
Image
Sometimes...we don't want to feel like a postmodern, postfeminist, overstretched woman but, rather, a domestic goddess, trailing nutmeggy fumes of baking pie in our languorous wake.
Nigella Lawson
Image
You need a balance in life between dealing with whats going on inside and not being so absorbed in yourself that it takes over.
Nigella Lawson
Image
Gordon Ramsay makes me laugh because he knows that I'm not a chef.
Nigella Lawson
Image
Emotion is messy, contradictory... and true.
Nigella Lawson
Image
I am not a chef. I am not even a trained or professional cook. My qualification is as an eater.
Nigella Lawson
Image
And cooking is about balance and harmony.

I'm not someone who's endlessly patient and wonderful.
